What Local 768 Offers
Its Members
Local 768 membership means guaranteed
wage scales. It means safe working conditions, health and pension
benefits and much, much more. And if you have problems on the job,
TWU 768 will be there to guide you through the tough times. While
non-union theatrical wardrobe personnel are left unprotected and
vulnerable to exploitation, membership makes you a secure part
of a proud and powerful union of fellow theatrical wardrobe professionals.
We take great pride in our Local and in supporting theatrical productions
with top-notch professionals.
A career as a theatrical wardrobe professional can be an exciting
and rewarding one. Our members share a great sense of pride in
their work and in being part of the creative team of a live theatrical
production. To be able to have a real affect on the artistic outcome
of a production is rewarding far beyond the paycheck. And just
imagine the joy of seeing your work on stage. It’s much more
than a job, it’s a creative career.
As a responsible labor union, we’re not only concerned with
our own interests. As a strong IATSE union we believe that community
outreach is important and urge our members to support charitable
events that make a difference in our community.
As an active and effective labor union, it is vital to establish
close ties with our elected officials. To do this, we partner with
other unions and Hollywood IATSE Locals to help elect the kinds
of political candidates who reflect our values, those who are pro
working families and sympathetic to labor, the needs of our membership
and the live theatrical industry as a whole. |
